Exposed metal surfaces, such as the shafts on the drums and pressure rollers, have been given a protective coating at the factory. This should be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene. Do not use acetone, gasoline, or lacquer thinner for this purpose. Do not use solvents on plastic parts, and do not use an abrasive pad because it may scratch the surfaces.

Assembly

Handwheel Assembly

1.Slide the post up into the handwheel and secure with the set screws, as shown in Fig 6.

2.Use a flat head screwdriver to screw the bolt of the handle as far as it will go into the threaded hole of the handwheel, then tighten the hex nut down against the handwheel (Fig. 6).

The handle must rotate freely after tightening the hex nut. If the handle is too tight, loosen the hex nut and back out the bolt slightly, then re-tighten the hex nut.

3.The handwheel assembly, used for raising and lowering the conveyor table, is designed to be mounted and removed quickly. Set the handwheel assembly down into the hole of the hood (Fig. 7) and rotate it until it seats itself upon the pins of the leadscrew below.

Note: The handwheel must be removed before the hood can be opened.

Dust Ports

Mount the two dust ports to the top of the hood with eight 3/16 x 1/2 screws and eight flat washers (Fig. 7).

Dust Collection

It is strongly recommended that you connect a proper dust extraction system to the two 4” ports atop the sander. Make sure the capacity of your dust collector is at least 1200 CFM. See Figure 2 for a diagram of the dust port spacing.

Electrical Connections

Electrical connections must be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant codes. The machine must be properly grounded to help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury.

The installer must follow local regulations and National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 installation requirements.

This tool should be connected to a grounded metal
